The Heart of Esthetics


Book Description

Looking for new clients without having a Client Development Plan in place is like buying your dream car without first learning how to drive. A good facial is simply not enough these days. Every Esthetician had to master the art of the facial to graduate from their Esthetician licensing program. And these days, pretty much anyone can learn some version of a facial online. Even so, the typical Esthetician will take a multitude of classes to learn more about facial services, however the same enthusiasm is not shown when it comes to learning how to build and maintain a financially successful esthetics business. Do you want to make a living...or create a life? A Professional Esthetician's job is not about giving facials, nor is it about talking people into buying products. Facials and products are simply tools that Estheticians use in their work. It is also not the client's job to sort through a menu of services and decide on their own which service they need, nor is it the client's job to determine which products they should be using at home. That era of esthetics is long gone. A Professional Esthetician's role in the business of skin care is to be well-educated and well-trained so they can analyze the client's skin condition properly and provide the best possible skin care based upon the client's current needs (which change all the time). Therefore, today's Professional Esthetician should be focusing on turning each new client into a loyal, long-term client. Financial success in the esthetics business today is all about client retention. An Esthetician must become indispensable to his or her clients. The Heart of Esthetics: Creating Loyal Clients & Achieving Financial Success offers clarity, specific solutions and proven strategies which will easily guide you to success and prosperity. Topics include measurable marketing (if you can't measure the results, don't waste your time or money on it), how to do a proper consultation (it is not the client's job to complete the Intake Form), going solo/starting your own esthetics business (choosing a name, choosing a space, what to put on your business card), Menu of Services and Products (customizing/specializing, choosing vendors, backbar and home care), client development and retention (how to create an unshakeable client bond and guarantee clients will purchase only from you). Estheticians, products and equipment will come and go... but the HEART of Esthetics will always be the key to your financial success.




Joyful


Book Description

Make small changes to your surroundings and create extraordinary happiness in your life with groundbreaking research from designer and TED star Ingrid Fetell Lee. Next Big Idea Club selection—chosen by Malcolm Gladwell, Susan Cain, Dan Pink, and Adam Grant as one of the "two most groundbreaking new nonfiction reads of the season!" "This book has the power to change everything! Writing with depth, wit, and insight, Ingrid Fetell Lee shares all you need to know in order to create external environments that give rise to inner joy." —Susan Cain, author of Quiet and founder of Quiet Revolution Have you ever wondered why we stop to watch the orange glow that arrives before sunset, or why we flock to see cherry blossoms bloom in spring? Is there a reason that people—regardless of gender, age, culture, or ethnicity—are mesmerized by baby animals, and can't help but smile when they see a burst of confetti or a cluster of colorful balloons? We are often made to feel that the physical world has little or no impact on our inner joy. Increasingly, experts urge us to find balance and calm by looking inward—through mindfulness or meditation—and muting the outside world. But what if the natural vibrancy of our surroundings is actually our most renewable and easily accessible source of joy? In Joyful, designer Ingrid Fetell Lee explores how the seemingly mundane spaces and objects we interact with every day have surprising and powerful effects on our mood. Drawing on insights from neuroscience and psychology, she explains why one setting makes us feel anxious or competitive, while another fosters acceptance and delight—and, most importantly, she reveals how we can harness the power of our surroundings to live fuller, healthier, and truly joyful lives.




Jet Age Aesthetic


Book Description

A stunning look at the profound impact of the jet plane on the mid-century aesthetic, from Disneyland to Life magazine Vanessa R. Schwartz engagingly presents the jet plane’s power to define a new age at a critical moment in the mid-20th century, arguing that the craft’s speed and smooth ride allowed people to imagine themselves living in the future. Exploring realms as diverse as airport architecture, theme park design, film, and photography, Schwartz argues that the jet created an aesthetic that circulated on the ground below. Visual and media culture, including Eero Saarinen’s airports, David Bailey’s photographs of the jet set, and Ernst Haas’s experiments in color photojournalism glamorized the imagery of motion. Drawing on unprecedented access to the archives of The Walt Disney Studios, Schwartz also examines the period’s most successful example of fluid motion meeting media culture: Disneyland. The park’s dedication to “people-moving” defined Walt Disney’s vision, shaping the very identity of the place. The jet age aesthetic laid the groundwork for our contemporary media culture, in which motion is so fluid that we can surf the internet while going nowhere at all.




The Beauty of the Lord


Book Description

Why is God's beauty often absent from our theology? Rarely do theologians take up the theme of God's beauty—even more rarely do they consider how God's beauty should shape the task of theology itself. But the psalmist says that the heart of the believer's desire is to behold the beauty of the Lord. In The Beauty of the Lord, Jonathan King restores aesthetics as not merely a valid lens for theological reflection, but an essential one. Jesus, our incarnate Redeemer, displays the Triune God's beauty in his actions and person, from creation to final consummation. How can and should theology better reflect this unveiled beauty? The Beauty of the Lord is a renewal of a truly aesthetic theology and a properly theological aesthetics.

Aesthetics and Film


Book Description

Aesthetics and Film is a philosophical study of the art of film. Its motivation is the recent surge of interest among analytic philosophers in the philosophical implications of central issues in film theory and the application of general issues in aesthetics to the specific case of film. Of particular interest are questions concerning the distinctive representational capacities of film art, particularly in relation to realism and narration, the influence of the literary paradigm in understanding film authorship and interpretation, and our imaginative and affective engagement with film. For all of these questions, Katherine Thomson-Jones critically compares the most compelling answers, driving home key points with a wide range of film examples including Wiene's The Cabinet of Doctor Caligari, Eisenstein's October, Hitchcock's Rear Window, Kubrick's The Shining and Sluizer's The Vanishing. Students and scholars of aesthetics and cinema will find this an illuminating, accessible and highly enjoyable investigation into the nature and power of a technologically evolving art form.
